In his more in-depth second review Judge Pender decided that Samsung's devices did not infringed on an audio jack patent -- U.S. Patent No. 7,912,501 "Audio I/O headset plug and plug detection circuitry", which he initially had ruled it had infringed. However, he stuck his prior ruling that Samsung infringed on a process on text selection in a GUI -- U.S. Patent No. 5,949,432 "Method and apparatus for providing translucent images on a computer display."

Apple may be able to ban Samsung's Nexus and Galaxy Tab devices in August.

The next step is for the full six-member commission to either approve or reject Judge Pender's ruling. That decision is expected to come in August.

They have the marketing team of Bin Laden's skill and expertise. How to get someone to kill people and themselves at the same time? How get people to buy my product year after year? How to get the best supplies for the cheapest prices? How to set prices, etc... I don't like Apple personally but you have to give them credit where its due. They were able to do what all other companies have been trying to do for years. They can get away with almost anything they want. They can probably go whaling in a boat made out of baby seal and polar bear hides and PETA would look the other way.
